Ohio to roll back curfew if COVID-19 patients remain low
Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine announced under what circumstances he would roll back the state’s overnight curfew.

Ohio’s current curfew, which extends from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m., ends this weekend. DeWine announced that if the number of COVID-19 patients in the state’s hospitals remained below 3,500 patients for seven consecutive days, he would roll back the curfew to 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. for two weeks.

After that, he would reduce the curfew to midnight to 5 a.m. if COVID-19 patients remained below 3,000 for seven consecutive days. That would last two weeks.

After that, DeWine would lift the curfew if Ohio’s hospitals had 2,500 COVID-19 patients or fewer for seven consecutive days.
